i have a 220g reef tank with 48 fishesh , 60+ inverts and many many corals ( LPS, SPS , anemones , clams , stony , leather and ..... ) and my stats are all ok but my NO3 is at 15-20 range , how can i lower it down WITHOUT water changes ??? any supplements or good filters or reactors ??? i mean like brightwell's NitraT . i feed the fish 3 times a day cuz they are so many .
 
yeah you can try a refugium filled with chaeto. Also will help keep your phosphates under control. I never really had luck with a refugium. There are various filter media you can put in canister filters and such. You can also try putting seachem denitrate in a phosphate reactor. Ive heard that works.
